Mercury High - Ian Gillan

Maybe I can see at night

Maybe I can touch the sky

A few feet above the ground

A few more with every bound

Got to get higher, got to get higher

No-one can see me trying

Dreaming of flying

I going to find my life in the light of the night

I’m going to dream my dream when you’re all out of sight

Then I can be who I want I can fly in the sky

Really feel a mercury high

Running thru' a crowded street

Faster than a lightning streak

With each step the night is brighter

With each step I’m feeling lighter

Got to get higher, got to get higher

No-one can see me trying

Dreaming of flying

I run — I fly — I reach the sky

My feet — have wings

Now it’s easy watch me fly

Wheeling in the open sky

A few feet above the crowd

A few miles above the cloud

Got to get higher, got to get higher

Everyone see me flying

Flying
